Has anyone looked up Clarksville yet ... I asked BT it seems like years ago. How can anyone be "from" Austin and not know about Clarksville?

Back to the OP topic.

I have also lived IN AUSTIN over a longer span of time ... thus you and I have a difference in opinion regarding the SPAWNING of "Cedar Park" and its actual beginnings ....

I spent years driving by the trailer park and you have spent years reading the chamber of commerce version ... trying to scrub up the image....


here's where you insinuate Cedar Park was or is a trailer park ... you're a word game, and a sorry one at that ...

There was no incorporated existence in those years and

If I wanted to "play on words" I could really have a good time with that ... but I'm little concerned about your self-proclaimed "expertise" on Austin and surrounding area ... any more pushing of the issue would require some "outing" and my preference is to remain as anonymous as possible on here for EVERYONE including you ...

so tell us about Clarksville .. or are you still trying to look it up?

done here.

But you're full of shit with your little BS word games LL.

We used to go to lake Travis out 2222...before there was a "fancy" bridge. It was there. HWY 360...home of the "fancy" bridge...wasn't built until the 80s. I do not remember driving out 183 to get to the lake. Or out 71.

of course, you do know all there is to know about all there is to know...

And while we're on your "tour guide" what was the name of the eatery where you "lunched" in Clarksville, or at least the street name or number? (Oh, "last week" .. you do know all about the history of Austin, having lunched there "last week.")

"All knowing" YR .... I hunted in what is now known as "West Lake Hills" (Just on the otherside of Lake Austin) and fished in the Colorado near the low water bridge before the dam was built to create Towne Lake.

But it is REALLY not about that either. Just ask BT.

Actually all this crap about Texas leads back to some lame-ass suggestion that because the shooter at the Naval Station stayed in Texas for a few months with a friend ...

the media called him a "Texan" ...

.... rather than a New Yorker where he was born and "raised."!

If the news has any positive threads ... like Hillary ... it's all about New York....

.. if violence it always leads back to Texas ... it seems. Usually by NonTexans.

Speaking of losers ....

... I'll refrain from discussing the lack of security on military bases

....and where the buck stops.
Or who does the background checks for the government since it outsourced it from the FBI.
